Abstract
Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Command and Control (C2) Systems (MAGTF C2) - MAGTF C2 Tactical Service Oriented Architecture (TSOA) is an ACAT IV(M) program of record (POR) that is the Marine Corps' response to the Department of Defense (DoD) Net-Centric Services Strategy (NCSS). TSOA is a software only "IT-Box" program that was created in order to achieve agility and greater cost reduction across the USMC Command and Control (C2) Enterprise. This POR has been identified by the USMC Combat Development and Integration (CD&I) as the USMC's Service Oriented Infrastructure (SOI), which is equivalent to a Common Operating Environment (COE). The USMC seeks to rectify its current C2 architecture, which is composed of disparate and duplicative legacy systems through TSOA. TSOA will enable a collapse of this disparate C2 construct and create a Net-Centric environment where Marines employ user-centered applications that access required information across Authoritative Data Sources (ADS). This will be achieved through the CD&I-directed TSOA compliance effort in order to reduce duplicative product development and enable a divestiture of legacy disparate systems. This requires additional effort to ensure other ADSs are compliant with the TSOA product line. TSOA's purpose is to ensure that Marines receive the right information, from trusted and accurate sources, when and where it is needed. This enables decisions "in context" for USMC operations across the Range of Military Operations and in support of the Unified Command Plan. TSOA's four capabilities include: Infrastructure and Services (I&S) which is the capability of authorized users to subscribe and publish required information from ADS with the use of software connectors; Agile Application Development (A2D) which is the capability to develop, accredit, and provide easy-to-learn, user-defined software applications that meet emergent Marine needs; Modular Software Architecture (MSA) which is virtualized, hardware agnostic, and scalable; Marine Corps Software Resource Center (MCSRC) is the Marine Corps' enterprise "App Store" for developed applications that allows Marines the ability to download, review, rate, and provide feedback. Funding in FY21 will be used to federate data across the Marine Air-Ground Task Force and Joint Task Force to support the USMC Common Operational Picture (COP)/Common Tactical Picture (CTP). Joint Battle Command - Platform (JBC-P) Family of Systems (FoS) - JBC-P FoS is an Army led ACAT II program of Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) interest, formerly known as the Blue Force Tracker (BFT) FoS. It is comprised of L-Band SATCOM and is a digital, battle command information FoS that provides integrated, on the move, timely, relevant Command and Control Situational Awareness (C2SA) information to tactical combat, combat support and combat service support commanders, leaders, and key C2 nodes. JBC-P FoS will provide JROC mandated C2SA convergence across Combat Operations Centers (COC), ground vehicles and dismounted personnel. Identity Dominance System-MC (IDS-MC) is a multi-modal (fingerprint, iris, and face) biometric collection system that provides the USMC a reliable and effective capability to collect, share, match, access, verify and store identity information. IDS-MC will enable the Marine to collect appropriate biometric, biographical and reference information on an individual and match this locally developed information with pre-existing information available to the expeditionary force. The system will display match results with linkage to the respective individual's biographical and reference information as well as help analyze the response, update records as appropriate, create reports and disseminate updated information. The primary mission of IDS-MC is to provide the Marine Corps with the means to identify persons encountered in the battle space. While IDS-MC is not an intelligence analysis system, it does provide identification information in support of military intelligence and law enforcement operations by providing positive identification of persons of interest. IDS-MC is an enabler in the areas of detainee management and questioning, base access, counterintelligence screening, border control, law enforcement, displaced persons' management and aiding in humanitarian assistance missions. IDS-MC supports the tactical application of identity dominance and fully supports a forward presence, crisis response and contingency response capability. The Expeditionary Forensic Exploitation Capability (EFEC) is a multi-modal (fingerprint, DNA, document, cellular, media, chemical, and fire arm) forensic collection system that provides the United States Marine Corps (USMC) a reliable and effective capability to recognize, protect, collect, analyze, store and share forensic information. This organic Marine Corps forensic capability supports deployed Marine Forces with agile, ruggedized, and scalable expeditionary forensics that are compatible and fully integrated with joint, other Service, and interagency laboratories, yet also tailored to the unique operating requirements of the maritime domain. Maritime applications include the ability to support Marine Expeditionary Units with an at sea forensic exploitation capability to conduct vessel boarding and ship search operations. EFEC supports the Information Environment through sensitive forensic testing and analysis that positively identifies personnel and trace chemicals/elements; forensically exploits document and media; and scientifically links identities and networks to places, events, and activities. EFEC increment 2 will provide a transformative capability that integrates Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to enable intelligence operations, force protection, intelligence, targeting, and law enforcement activities. Handheld Command and Control (H2C2) - The H2C2 portfolio consists of two specific capabilities - secure wireless access to multiple networks and handheld communication platforms. The handheld capability provides low cost (commercially available) platforms (smartphones and tablets) for use on tactical networks, up to SECRET, regardless of the operational environment. The secure wireless capability enables Marines burdened by wired implementations an option to leverage wireless mediums. This capability provides wireless communication between a variety of devices. Global Command and Control System Tactical Combat Operations (GCCS TCO) - The GCCS TCO program is the principal tool within the MAGTF for situational awareness through distribution of the Common Tactical Picture (CTP). It supports tactical operations providing information via high speed computer systems in a timely manner and includes the Tactical COP Workstation/Servers. RDT&E funding allows for developmental software development as the program of record changes from a client/server relationship to a cloud based enterprise solution. Military Global Positioning System (GPS) User Equipment (MGUE) - MGUE program efforts are focused on increasing the resiliency and assurance of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) capabilities across the enterprise, which enable Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Commanders to know and trust position, effectively navigate, and receive precise and accurate timing for users, platforms, and systems across warfighting functions. Current MGUE efforts will enable the Marine Corps to transition to the modernized military GPS signal (M-Code) through participation in both Air Force-led MGUE Increment I and Increment II programs. Increment I will deliver a receiver card capable of being embedded and integrated within a variety of USMC platforms and end items, while Increment II will deliver the next generation handheld device and will replace the Defense Advanced GPS Receiver (DAGR).
